TMNT, Ghostbusters together again for a comics crossover sequel

This November, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and the Ghostbusters reunite for a new inter-dimensional adventure!Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles/Ghostbusters 2 brings back of the modern fab fours in an upcoming weekly five-issue crossover event series from IDW Publishing.

When last the Turtles and the original ‘Busters crossed streams in 2014, the Turtles got stuck in the Ghostbusters dimension. Now the story carries on in 2017 when an old adversary traps the Ninja Turtles in a ghost dimension. However, all hope is not lost, as New York City’s original paranormal investigators answer the call to action in saving our Heroes in a Half Shell.

“When Erik and I first broached the idea of joining the TMNT with the Ghostbusters way back when, it felt like a wonderfully impossible dream,” said co-writer Tom Waltz. “Well, that dream came true with the first volume in a big way, and now I’m absolutely ecstatic to have the opportunity to once again help bring my two favorite quartets together for another massive comic book crossover event! And, like the first go-around, the events in this story directly flow out of and affect the storylines in both ongoing series.”

“I had such a blast working on the first crossover with Tom, and in the years since, we’ve talked about what we might do if we ever got a crack at a sequel,” said co-writer Erik Burnham. “When the opportunity came up, we didn’t even use a single one of those plans! Instead, we grabbed villains from both universes and mixed them together to form the foundation of a fun story that furthers the ongoing stories of both the Turtles and the Ghostbusters. Even better, we get some more one-on-one scenes, allowing their complementary personalities to shine and we’re beyond excited to share!”
